Garlic and Turmeric Roasted Chicken

My approach to meal prep is not the standard make a few different set meals or dishes, package them into 5 different Tupperware and enjoy them all week. Truthfully, I wish I could be one of the people who did this, but I get bored. Instead I prep food ahead that I can easily use in a variety of different meals. This garlic and turmeric roasted chicken is a recipe I can use in many ways and avoid the standard meal prep boredom. My approach to making this work for several meals is to make it at night and enjoy some for dinner with roasted veggies and save the rest for salads, sandwiches and bowls.
